Former Member Reference: We had two sinks in the house,white ceramic ones.One for every day use and the deeper "Belfast" sink for the washing.Seems they are back in style now,lol.I always remember my mums washing machine( A Goblin) it was a top loader with a big paddle to churn up the wash. You used big wooden tongs to lift the boiling hot wash(white cotton sheets etc) into the mangle ,it was an electric one to squeeze the water out of the clothes. I''m four years younger than you in January We had a big... [ more ]

Anyone else watching ITV2?
Karma_ Noooo not on a croc strap! Leather or stainless steel I'm watching it again on ITV2 now, so far I'm liking Kirk and Lauren and Mark's sister.

Advice needed please
bateman I've changed me mind. Write that they're utterly crap and you wouldn't re-employ them if they were the last person alive (other than your good self) and the apocalypse could only be averted by your hiring them again. Report back please. Ta [ more ]
Dame_Ann_Average I would decline and then your ass is covered, what's not said can't be proven [ more ]
Carnelian I agree, just declining is the easiest course to take. If you want to include the negative stuff you have to make sure it's pretty water tight rather than hear say gossip, emotive interpretations, proportionate or things that can be described as personality conflicts. From a personal point of view, if I was writing a reference of that type, I'd make sure the person it concerned had a copy. I was under the impression that HR departments mostly deal with this sort of thing as employers don't... [ more ]

OMG PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!!!
Former Member Excellent rant Cockney chick. I agree so much with this. Eastenders is just dire now, and the worst soap on tv. (If not thwe worst programme!) Though I admit that we also watch it (sometimes) out of habit, (in the hope it will get better maybe.) and we have it on for background noise to as there is rarely anything else on. We really should stop watching it, because it is crap. But many people I know think its shit and yet still keep watching it LOL. it's mad aint it? Its really so bad now:... [ more ]

Former Member "Mrs BlinkingHell" It was excellent wasn't it. WOW indeed. The pace of this series seems upped a bit, theres so much going on, and all the different strands beautifuly woven together. [ more ]
Xochi This is what I just posted on Will's blog but it's a work in progress! "Also mourning the future loss oldmuskrat But WOW! What a great episode! It just all gets better and better! I'll do a better critique later, because so many things stand out. Essentially though. The return of the business, Don's seeming decline whilst pulling the rabbit out of the hat at the end...and the young pup Pete's ascendancy. And a near punch-up between Pete and Roger! Who would have predicted that! Scrub that. [ more ]

Childhood heroes, who were yours?
Croctacus Marion Mould (Coakes) and Stroller. [ more ]
Former Member Blizzie, that song took me right back - haven't heard that in god knows how many years. Wouldn't say I had any heroes as such but when I was very young I loved Donny Osmond, David Cassidy, and bizarrely, the lead singer of Sweet. As I got older I moved onto hunks like Nik Kershaw and Morten Harket . I also had a bit of a fixation with the late Princess Di - even getting the same hairstyle around 1982 . [ more ]

Pirate Johnny Depp makes surprise school visit
Croctacus Reference: cariad He was filming Pirates there wasn't he so not too far to travel I guess but a nice thought (and good publicity) all the same. Yeah, i went on a semi stalking mission last Saturday but never saw him, saw some scenes being filmed and ate our way round Greenwich. Thats the school I told you about Cariad where my kids learned the sign language. [ more ]
Former Member I've just got back from a meal with some friends from work, and one of them was the person at Meridian Primary School who arranged for Johnny Depp to visit the school. We've spent all evening drooling over the photos of her with Mr Depp. She had him hidden away in her office at one point whilst the children were being moved up to the hall - and the silly woman let him out again I'm almost as jellus as I would have been if she'd had John McCririck hidden in the broom cupboard. [ more ]
Cariad And I'm not sure where the fancying thing comes from El Loro. Do loads of women fancy Mr Depp? I think he's at his most attractive as Captain Jack(and he is a lovely looking man I suppose) but I'd not say I fancied Captain Jack or Jonny Depp. More like I'd be attracted to having a bloody good time out on a jolly with him. What do I know? I prefer Tim Burton. [ more ]

Ack!!! I've got to go to a 60's/70's theme night tomorrow.
Cosmopolitan Reference: Burt Reynolds type mustache No cheating, Rawks - you should grow one. No Playgirl centre spreads though, ok! Best you practice those dance mooooooooooooooves if you're going to own that dancefloor. And just think, for every John Travolta there'll be a JT fan, so.......... make sure you don't superglue that 'tache too firmly. Have a great night. x [ more ]
Rawky-Roo Nah, not planning on wearing anything 60's/70's. Although the party is in Southampton so I may pull into a nearby town and pick up a Burt Reynolds type mustache Just realised that there is going to be so many people dressed up as John Travolta which makes them think they can dance like him.....its gonna be a living nightmare [ more ]
Cosmopolitan Rumbled........! So, what are you going to wear (apart from a shirt, natch). Are you going to embrace the 70's or 60's..? And will there be photographic evidence? PS. don't forget your Brut or Hai Karate after shave. [ more ]

Strange things that make you feel sick
Cariad People smoking in the street - especially first thing in the morning as I leave the station and they are so desperate for a fag...it makes me heave. I've often fancied spraying them liberally with Impulse or something as I hurry past to get in front of them just to see how they like being doused with an unwanted odour. And ketchup **shudders** And I LIKE that Ikea ad. It makes me awwww.... what can I say? I'm a cat person. [ more ]

This new Optical Broadband from BT?
kattymieoww MY provider is Orange ,they called last week trying to get me to upgrade my broadband.I told her that until I get cable etc there is no point.I can only get just under 2 MB.She said "Oh we've checked you can get 6.5" ,No I can't as I have copper wire cable going overhead to an old telegraph pole in the garden.I have checked the comp speed many times.Years ago the BT engineer who was fixing said cable checked for me.The distance from the exchange etc.Just under 2mb is it. [ more ]
Clumsycat they only put fibre optic to the box in the street.. then its the same copper wire to your hpome [ more ]
El Loro I assume that BT will, once the local exchange is upgraded will replace the telephone cabling to optical cabling from the exchange through to the houses into the phone sockets. That would explain why they are doing it in stages and it will take years to cover the whole country. [ more ]
